A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have a Podman container with Jellyfin running in it. It runs fine without SELinux, but it always crashes whenever SELinux is enabled. This will be an instance that will only be accessible in my private network.

Should I:

  • figure out how to use SELinux with Podman
  • uninstall SELinux
  • use a different server distro (Debian, Ubuntu)

If I should figure out SELinux, please point me to some resources as I could not find anything easy enough for me through a simple Google search.

Personally I would lean towards finding out why its borking with SELinux and fixing that. It really shouldn't be too hard. As others have mentioned it may be as simple as how you are mounting volumes into your containers - or it could be changing the SELinux context type for some files.
